I think the self deportation thing is key, when people say that we can’t deport 30 million people they fail to understand that if we make things uncomfortable enough for these drunken pedophiles they will decide it is better to go back to their country than to stay in ours.

"Everybody here, legally or illegally, we are part of a motor that makes this country run," Herrera said. "Once we leave, the motor is going to start to slow down."

Doesn't Mexico have a motor?

Now let’s address Legal immigrants who don’t have jobs!

Or citizens that don't have jobs.

My son went from making $25.00 an hour to making minimum wage, 20 hours a week. He would be thrilled to have one of the jobs that an illegal has.

I process rental applications, many of the applicants are illegal. Their salaries range from $8.00 to $20.00 an hour.

“They don’t want to live in fear, in terror.”

Well, that’s certainly over the top. I suppose entering a country illegally; being paid for jobs that are illegally handed to them; getting free benefits is terror and fear to them.

What planet did this woman step off of?

Perhaps I should limit it to parts of Boston, and the Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port! :0)

"People are calling me telling me about their friend, their cousin, their neighbors -- they're moving back to Mexico,"
And yet Arizona's favorite senator keeps telling us that we're stuck with them, and that's why we have to accommodate them. Apparently not.

“If unsuccessful, Arizona will become a sandbox with a lot of empty taco bells.”

By what process would that happen?

Mexico has harsher immigration and foreign worker laws than America does, Pedro.

It is good that illegal aliens are realizing they are better off in their own country, even though they don’t seem to care they are breaking the laws of the country they are illegally in.

However, I doubt that most are going back to Mexico. I would think they are going to different states for another shot before thinking about calling it quits. I believe this is a smoke screen piece to make people think the vast majority are leaving, but they are really trying to go underground by putting out these stories, and just moving to a different part of the country.

What does it say about Herrera that he abandoned his own country's motor? Seems like it could use a little speeding up.

I think America's motor can handle any blip created by his return to his own country. If the need arises, we can increase legal immigration. Of course, Herrera should be moved to the back of the line for breaking our country's laws. The 12 million remaining can get behind him.
